Great budget hotel
Staff are lovely and very accommodating, we had a water leak in bathroom which was fixed immediately. Breakfast was ok but would have preferred some pastry and fresh fruit. Overall a cheap hotel right next to tram line . I would stay again .

I left before stay end even without saying good by. The worst hotel I ever stayed in. Batter be a students home stay rather than a 3 stars hotel. pass your way, tinny rooms with dust all around bed in a dirty state. Dust everywhere. Breakfast nasty, hopefully for me there are plenty of choises around. Must be out of Expedia hotel category, believe me it is not worth a penny.

I will be putting a review also on the wotif website. Location advertised was wrong. False advertising with the images, not one image of the room we stayed in was on your booking site. Room was disgusting, beds, sheets pillows stunk like smoke even though we asked for a non smoking room. We had to check out a day earlier due developing rash from the lack of hygiene of the property. Will be requesting a full refund from wotif. Shame on use for deceiving and false advertising. I will be taking this further
